OK, let's do this. We've got 7612 and 9457 and we're adding them all together.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 7 in column 1 and get 9.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 1 & 5 in column 2 and get 6.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 6 & 4 in column 3 and get 10.
We'll write down the last digit 0 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 7 & 9 in column 4 and get 17.
We'll write down the last digit 7 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 7612 + 9457 = 17069.
